I am pleased to begin sharing the results of our comprehensive study of AI and copyright, with this first set of recommendations to Congress. It has become clear that the distribution of unauthorized digital replicas poses a serious threat not only in the entertainment and political arenas but also for private citizens. We believe there is an urgent need for effective nationwide protection against the harms that can be caused to reputations and livelihoods. [...] We look forward to working with Congress as they consider our recommendations and evaluate future developments.AI Verified source (Jul 31, 2024)

The official Library of Congress newsroom release at the supplied URL is dated 2024-07-31 and contains the quoted passage, with the first two sentences followed by an in-line attribution ('said Shira Perlmutter...') and then the final sentence. The user's [...] accurately omits only that intervening attribution, and the quote is explicitly attributed on the page to Shira Perlmutter. The stored author, date, source URL, and content are correct.

The words are genuinely attributed to Shira Perlmutter in July 31, 2024 official releases from the Library of Congress and the U.S. Copyright Office, but the submitted text is not verbatim: the official text inserts an attribution between the last two sentences (after “livelihoods,”), whereas your version merges them into one continuous quote and changes the punctuation; the LOC page also has the typo “t he,” while Copyright.gov has “the.” That makes the submitted quote materially altered rather than exact.
